Barnes, Carter, Dugan and other prisoners then broke out the facility, fighting HYDRA soldiers on their way, before Carter requested an air support. To Barnes' surprise, Rogers was the one who responded and then arrived at the battlefield in the armored suit, taking down HYDRA forces. While Barnes and Dugan were still confused, Carter and Rogers successfully destroyed HYDRA tanks and footsoldiers attacking them, while Barnes jokingly remarked that Rogers cannot even drive a car, but is pilotting an advanced armor. Barnes and the soldiers then cheered for Carter, but she replied that they still have a war to win.[2]

"Steve! Steve. Come on, pal, don't give up on me. Hey, I need a hand! Come on, help me get him out of here!"
"No. You gotta get me in the suit."
―Bucky Barnes and Steve Rogers[src]

Back at the Strategic Scientific Reserve Headquarters, Captain Carter interrogated Arnim Zola and found the headquarters of HYDRA's operations being Castle de Krake in Germany. Carter informed the Commandos that the Red Skull's plan was too use the Tesseract to unleash an inter-dimensional force and dominate the world, which Barnes was rather skeptical about. Carter voiced her plan to attack the castle and stop HYDRA, which Barnes supported, as a tribute to his fallen friend.

Fighting through remaining HYDRA soldiers, Barnes discovered that Rogers was still alive, being captured by HYDRA, together with his armor.

As Rogers was back in action, Barnes and the Commandos rushed upstairs to aid Carter, but found her fighting the Champion of HYDRA. Barnes and the Commandos opened fire at the Champion, before it let out a screech that incapacitated the Commandos and Stark.
